Make Your Homes Beautiful,
No people 011 earth have greater
natural facilities for beautifying
their homes than the people of the
South. So many indigenous i
grasses, so many native lloweiing
plants, so many beautiful shade
trees, such a long growing season,
all combine to make the task of
embellishing the home with nils
turo’s larcsl gifts comparatively
easy. And there is great profit in
such work. A home without flow-
hude or brooks is

to and from
! look forward to a life of labor and
j toil -as the wife of a man of mod-
j erate circumstances. “Only,”
j did we say? That is the wrong
| word—the woman who tills that
| sphere and tills it well does a
I higher and nobler work than
many a jaded leader of society, and
her rewards even here are greater
in the love and affection of her
husband and children. For the
girl, then, who expects to marry,
it may well be asked if the next
feu years cannot, be most profita
bly spent in her mother's kitchen
and at her mother’s sewing basket
learning the mysteries of house
hold economy and household man
agement that will prove more
necessary in after life than Latin
| declensions or mathematical theo
rems.
But, it may he said, notall girls
marry and every girl should he |
able to earn her own living. This j
is very true, although it may well [
he said that higher education
seems to be a hindrance rather
than an aid to matrimony. How
many women lawyers or doctors
marry? It would seem as if more
education made them more criti
cal and harder to please. Does it
always give them more chance to
earn their own living?
Judging by the troubles of York
housekeepers, and we do not be
lieve they are singular in this res
pect, the largest field for girls
who have to support themselves
is right in the kitchen. Not nec
essarily as drudges, hut as scien
tific cooks and managers. How
many women right in this city
stand ready to pay wages which,
taking into consideration that
board and lodging is provided,
are on a par with those paid
school teachers and typewriters?
And such cooks are the moBt care
free and independent of wage-
earners.
We are aware that such a propo
sition does not meet with a very
popular reception from the
majority of our girls. To be “at
service” sounds all wrong to the
i young American of today. It re
quires the hard knocks of life to
make us realize that we are not as
independent as we would like to
j he—that we are all at the service
I of others.— York Daily.

La Senorita.
a homo without inspiring attrac
tions. It is too often a home
without happiness’ and without
profit. The exuberance of spirits
that finds its outflow in the plant
ing of shrubs and flowers and the !
adornmeui of homo reveals a sense
for nil that is beautiful in life and
elevated in morals. The employ
ment of our leisure hours shows
the bent of out inclinations. Whore
there are no shade trees, no
part errs of flowers, no pleasure
grounds with swings and comfort •>
able scats, no magazines or news
papers to relieve toil or make
leisure hours profitable, what can
we expect the hoys on the farm to
do? For their pleasures they too
often visit the country store, in
dulge in coarse jokes and chaffer
ing nonsense, debase their sen,$o of
duly and diminish every day their
mental horizon and lower their
moral plane.
Make home beautiful and at
tractive, and every member of the
household will tic elevated. A
country place should imply, all
that is charming in nature and
all that is fruitful in field. It
should he a reservoir from which
issue the fountains of yirtuc, intel
ligence and hospitality. From
such a homo the highest type
the American citizen is drawn.

When the horse is .starving in
the barn, sitting* down and be
moaning because we didn’t make
hay while the sun was shining is
no way to fill the poor beast’s
stomach. The thing to do is to
get a hustle on, hunt up a kind-
hearted neighbor who is willing to
loan enough fodder to keep the
horse alive, and then get to work
and earn money to buy nmre.
Fortunately, there are plenty of
such neighbors around ready to
help the man who will help him
self.
Lowell is at the present moment
in the unhappy position of the
starving horse. It is therefore
not much use for Lowell to be
moan the mistake of the past, to
wonder whv, in fact, she ever got
mixed up in the strike in the first
place. The thing to do now is to
get to work as quickly as possible
and earn the wherewithal to pro
cure a square meal. The Cocked

While tho strike was being
urged at Lowell the Boston Jour
nal argued constantly coolness
and arbitration. Had that ad
vice been followed there would not

While President Roosevelt is
pleading for a larger navy and
heavier appropriations on the Pa
cific slope, those who served with
him .in the late Spanish war
are laying Riego to tho federal
treasury in a manner that,clearly
demonstrates that, however dead
ly modern warfare may become, it
is not at all likely to become less
expensive from the taxpayers
j commonplace point of view. No
less than 31,210 pension claims
arising in some mysterious man
ner from that war are now pend
ing in Washington, and no loss
than 25 per cent, of the men try
ing to panhandle the government
upon pretense essentially false.
Who Philippine continent is said
to he somewhat more modest in
of j this direction than the battle-
scarred veterans of Cuba and
Porto Rico; hut this is perhaps
due rather to the fact peace has
not yet boon declared in the East,
than to any innate disinclination
to charge the United States Treas
ury on masse when opportunity
shall offer. In the meantime, the
fact remains that up to da to no
less than 63,000 applications for
pensions have been received from
the modest heroes who “fought
unto” the Spanish war, and at the
present rate it will not he long be

ter for the succeeding wheat crop.
The green crop when turned un
der should have time to decom
pose before tho sowing of the
wheat. Otherwise the undecayed
muss will make the land to porous
for the healthy growth of the
wheat plant. No work is more
important to the wheat growing
farmer than a thorough prepara
tion of the soil before the sowing
of the crop. If the land is broken
in July, it should he double-disced
or rebroken in September. The
yield of wheat depends quite as
much on the preparation of the
soil af on its fertility. Thin soils,
( well prepared, will make a bettor
yield than rich soils tilled with
undecomposed vegetable matter
mixed with unbroken clods.—
